Venn Group Reviews 59

Great experience with Venn Group. The team is friendly, professional, and truly dedicated to finding the right roles. I’ve worked in both Housing and NHS positions through them.

Shout out to Sammy — calm, poised, and really knows her stuff. She was very helpful in offering constructive feedback when I was preparing for an interview. I remember giving her an example, and she advised me on how to turn it into a positive! 😊 She’s genuinely supportive throughout the process. Highly recommend!

The support I have received by both Johnny Shaw and Dan Tyler has been second to none. Never, in my 30 years of IT consulting have I had such fantastic support. Their communication has been second to none, a complete delight to work with. Clear, simple, efficient, communicative. Exactly what you need.

I had an exceptional experience with The Venn Group. Sophie and Gianluca were absolutely brilliant in handling my placement. They were professional, responsive, and genuinely cared about my needs. Within just a few days of sending my CV, they secured a placement for me, which was incredibly efficient. They also followed up regularly to ensure I was settling in and everything was going smoothly. I highly recommend The Venn Group for their outstanding service and dedication to their clients. Thank you, Sophie and Gianluca, for making the process so seamless!

Recently come off a job for Venn only a weeks work but couldn’t complain at the effort from Finn walker. Never had someone with so much passion and drive to get someone into work, he’s a real credit to your team. Cause of him I’d definitely work for Venn again, stayed in contact through out and got situations resolved very quick, spot on bloke and agency

Gianluca and the team made securing a Locum role very straight forward
Regular phone and email contact
Would definitely recommend

Stay well away from this organisation.Totally incompetent. They lied from start to finish!Wrote a contract contradicted itself and did not clearly state working conditions. From my experience I dont think they had any interest in the job role, client or employees welfare only in filling their own bank account. The communication was awful. Kept changing their story to suit. But no responsibility. Acting friendly but clearly no idea what they were doing. Now waiting to see if they will actually have the decently to pay me as they completely wasted my time and could have damaged my reputation

Really supported me through the process. Always on there to take my calls

My experience began in April last year and is still ongoing. There are too many issues to enumerate here but dealing with Venn Group has cost me a measure of my health. Like many of the people commenting, my experience related to conduct by agency staff, not least continuing to contact me when I asked them not to and them attempting to enable the client not to pay me money owed. (I was paid in the end, but I had to negotiate this myself. Meanwhile Venn Group kept contacting me trying to get me to back off. Now that I have complained about their conduct, they're attempting to take credit for the payment.)
Venn Group introduced me to a predatory umbrella company (saying that this company was one of their best and doing the hard sell). Due to misrepresentations, I was out of pocket every week for 6 months. This is money that I cannot recover.

There are many reputable and professional agencies who engage in best practice. In my experience and my opinion, Venn Group is not one of them and should be avoided.

Down to earth straight forward.. how refreshing!

The SAD thing is I started with them the good one is coming now the wages is not so bad but now is coming the bad one doesn’t want to pay extra for the weekend work when I told them is see to me is only flat rate if you don’t want to come in the weekend is no problem is somebody else coming.Is so SAD this things

Unsolicited communications via WhatsApp and incredibly unprofessional. Open conversations with ‘Hello’ and nothing more, then once you respond proceed to talk/text like a moody teenager.

Not recommended it the slightest.

No payment for a plant operator

Take a day off and Venn group will phone your family, make them think you're dead, get the police involved and then not pay you for the day you did work. Absolute shambles of a company. The amount of stress they'll make for you is a joke.

This agency is so poor, it’s a wonder anyone gets anything done. They pick & choose who they give work to & don’t answer emails or return phone calls if you’re not a favourite. There are loads of jobs in London in my field but not according to my inbox. It’s fine as there are better agencies who don’t lie & who pay better rates. Avoid them

I have been with Venn Group for ten years. Initially, it was all right, but everything started to go south two years ago. Even though they do not have enough jobs to go around, they will email to say they have a position on offer, that one should send an updated CV, and that they will call to discuss it. I have received this kind of email a few times, the last one was sent by Jorinta Zarembaita - Consultant. But for some reason, no one ever calls back to discuss any job, and there are no follow-up emails. Why they do this, I do not understand.

Excellent Recruiter up to Dec 2022, when I worked with them last. With the downward shift on the contract market, I would expect the unexpected.

Do not use them. They lied to me about a job. Place me in a hostile working environment that discriminated against me then blamed me about it.

Never had a problem. Always paid on time, and if the issues arrise always sorted.

Shocking Communications. Venn Group have been sending me unsolicited e-mails relating to job opportunities. I've formerly asked them to stop this and yet, despite having received my e-mails over the course of several weeks, they have completely failed to respond. This is a really appalling way to treat data subjects whose personal information they're processing.
